Hello Sunshine, in today's episode I speak with Paris Majeks who was diagnosed with secondary brain cancer at 19 and a mystery primary cancer. Paris talks about how she was ignored and dismissed by the medical community for years about her symptoms and saw over 50 doctors to finally find one who listened to her. After experiencing such a life-changing event at such a young age, Paris also opens up about how her cancer impacted the way she was living and how she became driven to live the life of her dreams.
